I like the track mix feature when I want to play music with the same ‘feel’.

After a while however it starts repeating tracks that were played in the same session. Today it even played a track twice in a row. I would like if tracks weren't repeated too quickly or, if possible, not at all in one session.This goes for recommended and flow too.

I can’t launch track mix for this song: https://deezer.page.link/sDSu9JKR2cfttSTf9

Even repetitive. It just stops.

When it will be fixed?

Is it really too difficult?

Can I enjoy the music, not just 2 tracks?

Hi ​@AlexWayfer thanks for reporting this issue and sorry that no answer was provided before.

This issue was reported already last year and seems that still persists as I tested some songs shared and indeed it keeps creating the same recommendations.

Nevertheless, some tracks seem to have changed their behaviour when you try to launch a track mix. 

This track https://www.deezer.com/en/track/2321622355 doesn’t have recommendations now.

The explanation why this is happening is because the song launched on the track mix does have recommendations linked or have a few ones, which makes the queue repeat the same songs over and over.

I asked the team if there is anything we can do to improve the UX in these cases, like for example, remove the option to launch a track mix, or have a button to report a track that doesn’t have a proper number of tracks to recommend.

@Leonídia.Deezer thank you for the information.

I’d like if Deezer will move into fixing (improving) recommendations (track mix), when possible, instead of disabling this feature for (not a few) difficult cases.

Sorry if something, but I’m comparing with Spotify, and this service can build radio based on this track: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1E8MvYqJJgiNRm

 

So, I believe, Deezer can too.
